  • In Kigali’s School of Architecture, Professor Josephine Malonza inspires her students to take a people-centred approach to "informal housing". She is part of a big urbanisation project in Rwanda’s capital and wants to see more community engagement in housing.
    In Settling, by filmmaker Amelia Umuhire, Malonza shares her story and ideas and takes us on a trip to Kigali’s oldest urban settlement. Hers is a life of moving countries, challenging gender roles, and finding life affirmation after a personal tragedy made her reflect on the lessons of the 1994 Rwandan genocide.
    Amelia Umuhire is a Rwandan filmmaker and artist. She wrote, directed and produced the award-winning web series Polyglot, the short film Mugabo and the Prix-Europa nominated sound piece Vaterland. Her work has been screened internationally. She is currently a head writer on a TV show for German broadcaster ZDF.

    That's great to see, I have studied spatial design and learned that there is a big problems with generic cities popping up everywhere, it would be sad to see Rwanda developing to look like all other cities. We want to see the culture

      True, as much as we want to develop, the culture flavor must be seen/felt in all our aspects. Hospitality and tourism in years ahead will produce revenues at a greater extent largely in countries who will have learned to preserve their cultural heritage even in the architectural point of you! Thank you for sharing your insight on this.
